Existence!
"Existence."
Alkaid muttered this word to himself.
At this mont, it was difficult for him to describe the thoughts held in his heart.
He could only present and express his thoughts in a way that he was able to recognize and understand.
This presentation, this expression, ultimately concluded in these two characters.
Existence.
"I exist."
Alkaid quietly imrsed his spirit in a state of perception exceeding that of the Ancient Immortal Realm, seeking his own existence.
This most primitive concept of existence...
"Cognition."
Alkaid's sowhat hazy spirit gradually beca lucid.
Cognition.
With cognition, then cos contemplation.
The manner of contemplation...
"Is ."
Alkaid said.
The manner of contemplation, is him.
Alkaid.
From appearing in the Alkaid Realm, Cangwu Realm, the Northern Sea Star, to the Immortal Realm, everything has been a process of thought.
His thought has turned once, therefore, he possesses this segnt of experience and life that is Alkaid.
Upon realizing this, he suddenly felt as though sothing was about to break through the soil.
And as if sothing was about to germinate and conceive.
"Because of cognition, hence contemplation, because of contemplation... therefore existence."
Alkaid thought.
Contemplating.
In the process of contemplation, so things, originally "Mystical Fantasy" and "Illusory", suddenly beca tangible and comprehendible.
This kind of thing, he guessed, is not the Lustrous Treasure Tree from the legacy of the Ti Daoist Ancestor or Void Ancestor, but a characteristic innate to him – High-Dinsional Cognition.
How should one individual co to understand another individual?
Firstly...
Recognize the manner of the individual's existence.
Then contemplate, contemplate on the concept and aning of that individual's existence.
Ultimately...
Transform oneself into the sa existence as that individual.
This idea faintly sprouted in Alkaid's mind.
And he felt, this is the truth, this is reality.
Yet, in his heart, there was also an indescribable strangeness.
Uncomprehensible.
Incomprehensible.
Just as humans cannot imagine what a four-dinsional space is like.
If truly faced with a four-dinsional space, he simply would not know what it is.
Alkaid realized that his life is a process of "thought", and even recognized the true concept of High-Dinsional Cognition, which is literally the thod of "High-Dinsional Cognition", but his heart was even more confused.
"What does this count for?"
Alkaid voiced out, "I think, therefore I am?"
He lowered his head, and through his own "existence," truly "saw" the Ancient Immortal Realm before him.
This ti, it's not using the mysterious energy of the Lustrous Treasure Tree to enhance the branches of Artifact Refining, searching for relevant things to Artifact Refining in the Ancient Immortal Realm and the Chaotic Origin Realm like searching for keywords.
Instead, he genuinely utilized the Great Void Path to deduce his own concept of "existence," observing the entire Ancient Immortal Realm as a third party.
Yes.
A third party!
When the Great Void Path broke through the Ancestral Path Level into a brand-new world, he had gone from nothing to sothing, completing the concept of "Nothingness" to "Existence."
He could not describe it with anything he comprehended, if forced to put it into words...
"I'm like a ghost that has been wandering outside the universe, separating a wisp of soul to exist in the form of 'Alkaid' in the Ancient Immortal Realm, having journeyed through the Alkaid Realm, Cangwu Realm, Northern Sea Star, Immortal Realm, and finally acquiring the ability for my soul to take a tangible form, thus looking at the Ancient Immortal Realm as a third party."
Alkaid said to himself.
Of course, this could also be described using an educated guess he compiled from the information at hand.
"My previous life had ended... yet sohow, I did not truly cease to exist. In an incomprehensible manner, I touched upon the 'High-Dinsional World' and obtained High-Dinsional Cognition. But this 'cognition' could not descend into this world. The three-dinsional and four-dinsional worlds are not parallel, like the soul and matter, unable to touch each other... until..."
Alkaid perceived the location of the "Lustrous Treasure Tree" deep in his Spiritual World.
Until one day, during the great battle between the Chaotic Origin Realm and the Ancient Immortal Realm, the Ti Daoist Ancestor and the Void Daoist Ancestor united and beca one. It seed that such a degree of power could sohow touch upon the High-Dinsional Domain, and eventually...
"I ca."
Alkaid said.
He inherited the power of the Ti Daoist Ancestor and the Void Daoist Ancestor—naly the Lustrous Treasure Tree, and appeared in the Land of Destruction Path akin to a reincarnation borrowing a body.
Living within the Alkaid Realm as "Alkaid."
However, this guess was still a guess.
There are so things that cannot be explained.
For instance, the assault on the Chaotic Origin Realm by the Ti Daoist Ancestor and Void Ancestor was clearly sothing that happened thirty-three hundred thousand years ago; even if he truly "reincarnated by borrowing a body," it should have taken place thirty-three hundred thousand years ago, so why would he only appear now?
And there's another point.
His mories of his past life, his connection with the world of his past life, are also largely uninterrupted.
It's as if he went to sleep, and upon waking, he beca Su Alkaid from Tian Nan Province.
This sleep, couldn't have lasted millions of years, or even tens of millions of years, could it?
Therefore, while he understood the essence of "High-Dinsional Cognition", and was able to truly "exist" beyond the Ancient Immortal Realm and Chaotic Origin Realm, becoming a third entity, he was still unable to clarify what exactly happened.
For a while, Alkaid shook his head: "After all, I know too little. I can only say that under the influence of 'High-Dinsional Cognition,' I have just erged from the Chaos Void, obtaining the essence of 'existence.' If I were to describe it using the lifespan of a human, I have only just been 'born.'"
He smiled and quickly retracted the essence of his "existence," swiftly returning to the Ancient Immortal Realm, back to the Immortal Realm, and then to Creation Celestial City, residing within the original body in Yu Xiao Immortal King's cultivation cave mansion at the Creation Group.
At this ti, he discovered new branches had remarkably grown on the Lustrous Treasure Tree.
Especially startling was the strength of this particular branch.
It had already surpassed the main stem of the Lustrous Treasure Tree, replacing it to beco the new main body of the tree.
Alkaid gained insight.
By this stage, his form of "existence" was no longer confined to the Lustrous Treasure Tree, no longer limited by the Ti Daoist Ancestor, nor the Void Ancestor.
Not even constrained by the Ancient Immortal Realm or the Chaotic Origin Realm, but rather like a newly born life.
It's just that his mode of thinking had not yet transitioned from this state, still interpreting through the "Lustrous Treasure Tree" perspective.
If he wished...
He could at any mont transform this branch, thicker than the main stem, into any shape or form.
The surface of water, a mirror, a screen, artificial intelligence, even a fleeting thought.
But Alkaid did not make any changes.
His focus was intently on the new branch.
For the first ti, the branch did not reveal to him the na of this realm.
A brand new domain.
A fresh beginning.
Alkaid pondered for a mont, then asked, "What lies beyond existence?"
He recalled that sensation.
No matter, no energy, no ti, no void.
Nothing at all, complete nonexistence.
An expanse of Chaos Void.
Therefore...
"I was born from the Chaos Void, so this state..."
With a thought from Alkaid's mind, the tree branch with nothing on it had already transford.
[Chaos Rebirth]
"Let it be this na, I'm not adept at naming."
After saying this, Alkaid shifted his gaze to the other branches of the Lustrous Treasure Tree.
Specifically, the Artifact Refining branch.
"Should I use the essence of 'existence' and borrow Artifact Refining Technology to craft a new body for myself? A Body of Chaos? To sound more sophisticated, a Chaos Sacred Body?"
He weighed it slightly, manipulating his share of the Great Dao.
But in an instant, he seed to realize sothing.
With a shift in thought, Alkaid's Lower Realm Starry Sky original body took out the Great Dao Tower.
"If I'm not mistaken..."
He activated the Supre Holy Artifact, the Great Dao Tower, with the "existence" born from the Chaos Void. Instantly, all the Great Daos contained within the Supre Holy Artifact swiftly transford and, without any barriers, the Three Thousand Great Daos rged into one within this "existence."
"It's the Great Void Path!"
Alkaid had an epiphany.
His essence of "existence" was realized through the Great Void Path, and at this mont, he essentially had the power of the Void Dao Venerable to carry the abilities of two thousand nine hundred ninety-nine Great Daos.
As he drew more and more of the Great Dao Tower's power, it swiftly commanded the attraction of the Immortal Realm.
However...
Judging by the fall of the Ti Daoist Ancestor and Void Ancestor in the Lower Realm Starry Sky, the Immortal Realm's attractive force could not restrain a Dao Venerable.
But Alkaid had no intention of resisting the Immortal Realm's force.
Having "perceived" the Ancient Immortal Realm and the Chaotic Origin Realm more than once through "High-Dinsional Cognition," he wanted to try, with his [Chaos Rebirth] essence of existence, to step outside of the Ancient Immortal Realm and truly "see" the entire picture of the world, including the Chaotic Origin Realm.
With this thought, Alkaid stepped into the void and, following the path of his "cognition," step by step, traversed the void, using the power of the Great Void Path to head "outside" through the Starry Sky Universe.
This path...
Neither complex nor simple to describe.
But Alkaid himself had previously recognized the way more than once by climbing his field of vision, and while it was his first ti truly stepping out, the journey was still familiar.
As he walked, the influence of the Three Thousand Great Daos gradually weakened.
Alkaid was a bit unaccustod when it first weakened.
But with the essence of "existence" at his core, he was equivalent to the Void Path itself, so that the speed of Void Shuttle remained rapid.
As Alkaid pressed on, the concept of the "Ti" Great Dao within the Three Thousand Great Daos beca muddled.
He couldn't tell how long had passed when Alkaid felt enveloped by Chaos Void and he could no longer sense even a trace of the Three Thousand Great Daos.
"Have I made it out?"
Alkaid remarked.
He carefully sensed his surroundings...
Just as he had previously "perceived" with his "High-Dinsional Cognition."
Nothing at all, complete nonexistence.
A blend of chaos and nothingness.
Such an environnt...
Was too dull for his taste.
"My ultimate goal in cultivation is for enjoynt. If I truly lived in such a place, wouldn't all my efforts be in vain?"
Alkaid complained in his mind.
He tried to extend his essence of "existence."
He could do so, and with the surrounding area being Chaos Void, similar to a vacuum without resistance, the spreading was rather quick.
But...
Only having the "Great Void Path," the essence he spread was simply space.
Layers of expanding space.
Still, there was nothing inside.
Not even a single planet.
"Forget it, back to the original plan, to Ascend to Immortality, to study the Great Dao powers of Soul, Mind, Fantasy, Reincarnation, and more, including the Power of Cause and Effect from the Gate of Destiny, Gate of Cause and Effect, crafting an Immortal Technique stronger than "The Great Dream of a Thousand Years," enveloping both the Chaotic Origin Realm and the Ancient Immortal Realm, allowing both worlds to coexist peacefully."
Alkaid turned around and embarked on his return journey.
After all this, he could lay back in Chaotic Origin Realm or Ancient Immortal Realm, truly live the tranquil life he desired, and enjoy the years of Eternal Life ahead.
